One easy way to improve your memory

Today is when I post about whatever I “fancy”. I’m posting this excerpt from WebMD. Check out the whole article for more information.

I was talking to my daughter the other day about my mother’s failing memory. She mentioned that some parents she talked to give it to their children with Down Syndrome. She has not found a children’s strength but when she does she will start giving it to our four-year-old grandson who has Down syndrome. In case you didn’t know, children with Down Syndrome are more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease as they age.

So I bought some and am going to try it myself for a few weeks to see if it helps. I don’t consider myself as having memory issues but everyone over a certain age probably could use a little boost to their brain.

However, I’ve read that it helps to take three peppercorns with the pills. I don’t know if this article says that but you can check through the pages. This is only the first page.

There are many things we can do to improve our physical and mental health. Medical doctors are not well-educated when it comes to areas outside their medical field. Seriously, when would they find the time anyway?

Therefore, I think it’s up to us to learn as much as we can. So much of our health is within our own hands.

Turmeric (Curcumin)

In the U.S., turmeric is best known as a spice. It’s one of the main components of curry powder. In India and other parts of Asia, turmeric is used to treat many health conditions. It is believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and perhaps even anticancer properties.

In lab tests, curcumin seems to block the growth of certain kinds of tumors. One study showed that turmeric extract containing curcumin could — in some cases — stabilizecolorectal cancer that wasn’t helped by other treatments. But more research is needed.

I am not only aging, but after many years with MS, I have a sometimes problematic memory. I forget what I’m talking about in the middle of the conversation, or sentence even. I tell people the same thing more than once, and people keep telling me about things I did/said that I just don’t remember. I don’t normally cook much, being in a wheelchair, but I may still be able to incorporate this spice into my diet.

Hi. Glad you stopped by for a visit. I blog about mental health issues, faith and spirituality, and DIY projects. Sometimes I just blog about whatever appeals to me.
Hope you enjoy your time here. God bless.
